What the law expects at a loading bay
Across Great Britain, including Scarborough, loading bays bring together several duties: maintained work equipment under PUWER 1998, safe traffic routes under the Workplace Regulations 1992, and safe powered doors under the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. Dock levellers should meet BS EN 1398, and the site's risk assessment should cover vehicle creep and drive-aways.
Access, phasing and timing
Service and repair visits in Scarborough are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.

Questions from businesses in Scarborough
Do you repair dock shelters across North Yorkshire?
Yes. We replace torn curtains, repair bent frames and scissor arms, fix inflatable shelter blowers and bags, and renew worn bumpers across North Yorkshire, always quoting a fixed price before ordering made-to-measure parts.
Is our dock leveller in Scarborough safe to use?
If it drifts, drops, leaks significantly, has cracked hinges or damaged toe guards, or will not return to stored position, stop using it and isolate it until it has been inspected and repaired.
Should we repair or replace our leveller in Scarborough?
Repair is usually the first step. If the platform is cracked, the pit edges are broken or repairs are frequent, we price a replacement into the existing pit alongside the repair so you can compare.
